Dear Parents and Guardians of Middle School Students,
Parent-teacher conferences are a designated opportunity for you and your child to discuss your student’s academic and social progress and set goals on an individual basis with teachers. In Pennsbury School District, we are excited to offer parent-teacher conferences for students in grades 6-8 in November and April. Communication between a school and home is necessary for a child’s continued academic success and social development. Conferences are an integral and beneficial part of our educational process. Conferences allow a designated time for teachers, students, and parents to build relationships and create goals regarding student progress in school and for parents to share other information about their children. This sharing of information is an important ingredient in effective instruction. At the middle level, conferences will be student-led, and your child will attend the conference with you and share their progress and experiences from the first marking period.
Conferences will be offered both virtually and in person on Monday, November 25th, in the afternoon and evening, and Tuesday, November 26th, in the morning. Students in Grades 6-8 will be dismissed at 11 AM on Monday, November 25th, and Tuesday, November 26th (no lunches will be served), and there is no school for students on Wednesday, November 27th. Conferences are optional but highly encouraged for all families.
At the middle level, one of your child’s teachers will reach out with an email next week to schedule a conference.
We look forward to welcoming you into our school buildings in April for conferences!
